The MANY Interpretations of Spinosaurus! (One Year!)

[@SmashBrosAssemble]

In the past 110 years, few Dinosaurs have gone through such extreme makeovers & debates about its lifestyle & behaviour quite like Spinosaurus.

[@NeilDegrasseTysonWithAKatana]

I mean to be fair, few dinosaurs have been described for 110 years at all

[@EuthanizeAllDogs]

Therizinosaurus hasn't been known about for 110 years, but it turned from a slashing sea turtle to a fluffy tickle chicken in less than 80 years.

[@Mimic_45]

You forgot quite a few: - The Spinosaurus from the Teen Titans episode "The End part III". - The Spinosaurus from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003 show episode "Tempus Fugit". - The robotic Spinosaurus from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2012 show special episode "Blast to the Past". - The pack of Spinosaurs from Dink the Little Dinosaur episode "Mystery of the Broken Claw". - Some Spinosaur-like dinos appear in the Justice League Action episode"Booster's Gold". - Spinosaurs show up in a few episodes of Dino Ranch. - A villain named Page One can turn into a Spinosaurus in One Piece. - Spinosaurs appear in Doraemon 2008 movie "Nobita's Dinosaur" and 2005 anime episode "Running away from the Cretaceous Period". - A fictional relative of Spinosaurus named "Empirosaurus" shows up in the Terra Nova episode "Nightfalll". - The pack of Spinosaurs from La Brea season 3. - A Spinosaurus briefly appears in The Asylum film Age of Dinosaurs. - A Spinosaurus shows up at the end of the Indian film Adhisaya Ulagam. - Some Spinosaurs are present in the Hungarian CGI short films Pangea - Rexy goes to Mama and Pangea - Rexy and the Mountain King. - A Spinosaurus shows up in the British CGI short film Return to the Lost World. - Spinosaurs appear in some Asian animated show such as Dino Mecard and Dino Master.

Fun fact: the “when dinosaurs ruled” spino was my introduction to spinosaurus, alongside massospondylus, rahonavis, giganotosaurus and more. I have a nostalgic soft spot for this weird Dino doc :)

Spinosaurus is one of my favorite dinosaurs and Idc what people think of them they will always be intimating and majestic🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@plumpmoose]

[@GTSE2005]

Monsters Resurrected claimed that Rugops was 30 feet long. If we went with this estimate, this would make the show's Spinosaurus a whopping 270+ feet (or over 90 meters) long, given how easily one rugops was able to fit into its mouth.

Congratulations on bringing this series so far! I think this was a great idea for an anniversary video.

[@MarkTheDilophosaurus281]

Happy 1 year anniversary to Dino Guy!! 🎉

[@IceFireofVoid]

How much our understanding of Spinosaurus has changed and continues to change is exactly why it's one of my absolute favorite dinosaurs. It really puts into perspective how little we know, how many blanks there are in the records and how much we learn more and more over time. It's everything I love about paleontology as a field, so perfectly exemplified. Neverending discovery.

[@EvolvedGodzilla360]

Awesome job making it a whole year ever since you first started making videos dude

Super exciting you are so close to 20k subscribers !!!! the when dinosaurs ruled series is one of my favourites even though its super outdated i would watch it on repeat when i was a kid :) buzzing for the jurassic spino to make a comeback it looks so mean and intimidating !!

[@singingcrow439]

I'm surprise this isn't a full-on movie.

[@heitoresco]

I love your channel! I don't know if you've mentioned it in any videos, but there's a documentary called "The Lost Dinosaurs from Egypt" that has nostalgic figures of Spinosaurus and Carcharodontosaurus.

[@josiahdrake2632]

I also have two Papo models of this cool animal!

[@Cloudrunner62]

Happy birthday, MiO!

[@mrnekokittycatsaki1419]

I'm pretty sure that the Spinosurus would probably win if it got the T Rex neck because its got longer arms and longer mouth and it's taller

[@alexciesielski1840]

Nice little tip when you do do the spinosaurus aegypticus raid: only use the Pantherator hybrid, it just needs to be lvl 21

[@EuthanizeAllDogs]

To be fair, at least in the first Jurassic Park, the frog DNA had nothing to do with the different appearances of the dinosaurs. They really did put in a lot of time and effort to make the dinosaurs as accurate as possible with the help of real paleontologists, with stuff like the Dilophosaurus being more speculation than a hybrid. In the novel, which a lot of people cite as evidence without reading it at all, Dr. Wu even tries to persuade Hammond that the dinosaurs' genes can be altered to make them more controllable and more like what people want to see, but Hammond insists he wants the real thing. The frog genes never went into account for the dinosaurs' designs, it was solely for the breeding plot device. Even in JP3, when Grant explains how the Jurassic Park animals are theme park monsters, later in the film, guess what happens? He learns to appreciate the dinosaurs made by InGen not as monsters, but as real dinosaurs. It was pretty much only Jurassic World that tried to push the narrative that its dinosaurs were all hybrids since the beginning as an excuse for its now-outdated designs and so that they wouldn't need to put any effort into the new designs, like that horrible baryonyx. Regardless, congrats on being here for a year! Your channel is definitely to be one of the best dinosaur channels on KZbin in my opinion.

[@DinoGuy8]

This is what I’ve been saying!

[@william3100]

It was not an excuse, and it certainly doesn't excuse the deliberate decision to make the velociraptor the way it is in the novel, which Crichton knew was inaccurate. Also, it coincides with the theme of genetic engineering more to make the dinosaurs hybrids. Hell, I would say that what Jurassic World TRIED to do was a good extension of the novel. Also, novel Dr. Wu still went forward with the monstrous dinosaurs(just look at the raptors), and his logic for having artificial dinosaurs also coincides with how you can't fully recreate the past. Hammond wanting real dinosaurs was portrayed as short-sighted in the book. Edit: you are also forgetting about the dilophosaurus in the movie. That was made really inaccurate. Same with the velociraptors in the movie and don't give me that deinonychus excuse. The filmmakers knew it was inaccurate but still decided to base it off of deinonychus. It's not even an accurate deinonychus design either for the time.

[@EuthanizeAllDogs]

​@@william3100 Uh, no, dude. You just repeated the velociraptor argument several times in your response with different words each time. The theory that velociraptor and deinonychus, while dying out, still existed in the 90's. Velociraptor antirrhopus is what they're called, and yes, it wasn't invalid to call them that at the time (they're called Deinonychus antirrhopus now btw). And sure, they weren't exactly accurate, being a bit larger than the actual animal to better suit the story needs in both the novel and the movie, but other than that and the feathers issue (which was known about but not proven due to Sinosauropteryx not being discovered yet), they were actually pretty accurate at the time. So in your words, "it was not an excuse". They were literally Deinonychus scaled up and with a bulky head. The sequels just ran with it even after it was proven without a doubt that the two genera were different. Also, read the full comment before assuming. I did not forget the Dilophosaurus, and aside from the speculative frills and venom pouches beneath the jaw, the Dilophosaurus wasn't horribly inaccurate at the time (although it was still the worst creature in the film). Its smaller size was clearly it being a juvenile, although Dominion screwed this and much more up, and looking at a frilled lizard skeleton, it's somewhat believable without a bit of research that a dinosaur could also have soft tissue like it without showing it on its skeleton (only part of the frill is bone). Yes, I agree that hybrids could've been a good extention of the genetic engineering theme, but they really just wallowed in the own crap rather than diving into it. The Indominus is perfectly designed to live in an ecosystem (at least for itself, not so for the ecosystem itself due to it hunting for sport) and is never shown having any health issues or anything. It just happened to be perfectly designed and any mistakes (like the tree frog DNA) simply help itself be better at its role as a superweapon. It isn't suffering in any way, and really just comes off as stupid and unrealistic. Why would they design their first hybrid as a bulletproof gigantic theropod and how is it even able to come up with anything that it does in the movie? How does it know what its tracking implant does? Why didn't it rip it out previously? Why didn't it ever use its camouflage before, hiding its ability like a secret until the right moment? How did it know that it could trick the humans into believing it escaped its pen without ever trying this before? And if it can rip through 40-ton sauropods so quickly that they can barely even get away, how can Blue endure a full force slap and how did the t.rex even injure its bulletproof hide? Jurassic World was just an awful movie overall, but still they could've executed their hybrid concept better at least. The Indoraptor has its issues everyone already knows about, like its dumbass laser mechanic, but the Scorpius Rex was decent in my opinion. It did feel and look deformed, like it wasn't quite perfect, since humans can't genetically engineer an animal to be perfect in every way. I didn't like Camp Cretaceous one bit, but the Scorpius was good regardless. That's it, that's my whole rant.

[@william3100]

@EuthanizeAllDogs First off, deinonychus being seen as velociraptor was ONLY thought to be true by the guy who wrote the book that Crichton based his raptors off of. No one else believed deinonychus was velociraptor. The guy who made that idea up made a lot of fringe ideas. Crichton even understood how inaccurate it was but still used that anyway. Plus, velociraptor in the novel WAS velociraptor mongoliensis as stated in the book. Also, the idea of some fragmentary bones belonging to a bigger velociraptor was a supposed idea, either. A scaled up deinonychus with a more bulky head and higher than realistic intelligence is still highly wrong, and the filmmakers knew this. Second, the dilophosaurus frills and venom weren't speculative. They were added to make the animal stand out, and the animal was considered to be a full adult at the time until Dominion changed that. Its skull was very inaccurate, too. It is also not the worst dinosaur in the movie because of that. Jurassic Park is a science thriller about genetic engineering, and I think it's better for the franchise to continue in that territory. Finally, I said the IDEAS Jurassic World tried to push was good. I agree that the execution could've been better. Still, though, the indominus was unstable in an ecosystem because it didn't have the same instincts as a normal animal that evolved for millions of years. It had the instincts of many completely different animals mashed right in. That really meshed the animal up psychologically ignoring being in a cage for years. It knows the tracking implant because of its hyper intelligence and ripped it out as part of a plan, I guess(it is weird, but it couldn't rip it out in the cage because it was still in the cage). It DID camouflage itself to trick the humans into thinking it escaped at first. The apatosaurus's were probably bred to be passive and not very tough, which is why the indominus went through them easily, and the bulletproofness probably comes from the fact that the scientists didn't know exactly what the traits they put in would present themselves like in reality when it got made. Adding to the theme of not knowing what they are dealing with when making life. Jurassic World wasn't the best of films, and a lot of stuff could've been better, but its ideas are solid extensions of the franchise, in my opinion, and try to be more in line with the science thriller angle of the novels, despite failing at that. Plus, all the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park are basically hybrids because the DNA of other animals are in their genetic code. The dinosaurs' genes are pretty blatantly stated to not be pure in the first movie. Sorry for my kinda messy first comment, btw.

[@shadowfreddy6033]

Why do you people hate my girl Chaos so much?

[@ProcyonDei]

I like the theory of Spinosaurus being able to move in water the same way hippos do, hippos are very dense and sink like rocks when they enter the water, but that same density allows them to "jump" underwater to propel themselves at surprisingly fast speeds...

[@shadowfreddy6033]

I think you still missed one. In Power Rangers Dino Charge their was a spinosaurus zord which is actuslly one of the few zords to not be conected to any of the special artifacts that the rangers use.

[@trevorc4380]

Love your videos and content! Hoping you continue these Many Interpretation videos. Thanks for the great content.

[@princessliam5949]

Great vid. I think spino was in power rangers and super sentai series as zords but cant remember how many there was because they have multiple dino zords throughout the yesrs be great vid to watch of reacting to all the dinosaur zords. Another good video might be looking at the dinosaurs in Paleo Pines it's a video game

The Spinosaurus in the scene with fighting that other dino for the meat is 👍

[@shiraagross]

Primal carnage has a system called mutations that changes the appearance of the Dino’s for example there are some that make the spino look paleo accurate and there are others that make him look like a dienocheirus

[@astrotuner]

Congrats! Glad I found your Channel! I Know you don't put toys in your Many Interpretations videos but the First Version Of Jurrassic Park's Spino was in the Lost World Toyline nicknamed "Slice". Considered a holy grail for some Collectors now.

[@Rex_The_Coelurosauravus]

Love the video, as normal, please do Suchomimus!

[@Khaloofidino]

The only question I have about spinosaurs is how would it react in a human encounter

[@Dinoslay]

I just read the third Dinosaur Sanctuary manga that heavily features the Spinosaurus in a chapter and I got to say that while it is based on a currently uncertain theory in terms of its way of aquatic locomotion the Spino in the comic is still something really worth taking a look at.

Happy anniversary to this series also I have a question where did u get that spinosaurus skull in the back from cause I wanna get one

[@Kisseyhersh123]

If I'm not mistaken, When Dinosaurs Ruled was released in 1999? Which means that Spinosaurus would be accurate for the time. It's before the connection to other spinosaurids like Baryonyx, but after dinosaurs gained their accurate stance and gait. Zoo Tycoon 1 has the same thing, a mid-transition Spinosaurus that was just before the connection that was made in Jurassic Park 3, which became the most accurate Spinosaurus recreation up until the new discoveries in 2014.

[@DinoGuy8]

I believe that it varied. Some had made the connection with animals like Baryonyx already. So I think it was a mixed bag with Spinosaurus reconstructions. Though, the mid to late 90s is certainly when a shift was occurring. I know there was a statue built in ‘95 that was far closer to the early 2000 depictions. Even the Disneys dinosaur concept art had a skull far more reminiscent of a spinosaurid.

Came back after seeing the Sauria episode with Spino. Let me tell you, it’s something else (and not just referring to the Spino model)

[@TomasGomezGoitia]

Goofyspinus unicus - Von Drake, 2020 (Late Cretaceous, North America, 64-65 million years ago) Means: "Unique Goofy Spine" Height: 30 meters Weight: 20 metric tons Length: 100 meters Diet: Pterosaurs, small mammals and shrimp Goofyspinus was a theropod dinosaur that lived during North America during the Late Creataceous, from 64 to 65 million years ago, in what is now known as California. Goofyspinus had an even smaller brain than stegosaurs and was thought to be extremly dimwitted and sluggish, two reasons that may indicate why it went extinct in just a few million years. This dinosaur mainly fed on pterosaurs, small mammals and shrimp. But in all honesty, Spinosaurus Goofy is the best interpretation of Spinosaurus in any piece of media.

[@coolhorselover234]

I honestly love Spinosaurus. I didn't like Spinosaurus before as much as I do now. Why? Well, I wasn't a big fan of the former reconstructions of Spinosaurus (popular JP, quadraped, and og), something always felt off, and I was happy when it was discovered that Spinosaurus had a paddle-tail. Spinosaurus went from my third favorite dinosaur to my second favorite dinosaur.
